<p>Hello. Noob question. I have 2 failing tests and don't know why. Here is my pull request <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/65506" target="_blank" title="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/65506">https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/65506</a></p>

<p>I think the meaning of error-pattern is different for ui tests and run-fail tests. In the former the pattern is matched against compiler output, in the latter against the executable output.</p>

<p>Additionally if compilation succeeds the error patterns are completely ignored,<br>
so test cases using them don't actually work correctly after being moved to ui.<br>
Either way it seems like a bug in compiletest.</p>
